The program opens with a conversation with Christopher Scalia, the son of the late Justice Scalia, moderated by Evan Young, a former clerk to Justice Scalia. The discussion will center around Christopher Scalia’s book “Scalia Speaks: Reflections on Law, Faith, and Life Well Lived”, a compilation of his father’s favorite speeches.

The second half of the program is a panel discussion on what James Madison, author of the 1st Amendment, would have thought about today’s media landscape. This discussion will be moderated by Amanda Schnetzer, George W. Bush Institute Director, Global Initiatives and will include both Madison scholars and media experts. The panelists include Jefferey Rossen, a Madison expert and president and CEO of the National Constitution Center, Amy Mitchell, co-author of the Pew Research Center’s annual “State of the News Media” report. She is also a recognized expert researcher of media, and Mike Wilson, editor of the Dallas Morning News.

The Engage series was started back in 2015 and has featured such thinkers and news makers as Condoleezza Rice, Jenna Bush Hager & Barbara Bush, Gen. Michael Hayden, as well as other programs supporting special exhibits at the Bush Center Museum. Read this article at PR Newswire.

Aggressive breast cancer study shows that a more therapeutic treatment could be in the future for those who have the hormone “ERB” (Estrogen Receptor Bata). Oncotarget has also published an article that is targeting specific molecules for further research. These molecules could provide better medications for those with breast cancer. Those that have been diagnosed with “TNBC” (Triple Negative Breast Cancer) are also considered Aggressive types. 15 percent of those diagnosed cancer types lose the proteins that bind the hormones estrogen and progesterone that is present in normal breast cells. The lose of these receptors makes cancers more resistant to common treatments. Learn more about Oncotarget at Research Gate.

Considering all the new advancements in treatment methods TBNC patients are not properly diagnosed since the cancer is likely to spread to other organs. Researchers are working on understanding the characteristics of the cells and molecular pathways to identify the best treatment options. The research involving introducing estrogen to cancer cells could show a reduction of the cancer tumors or prevent their growth. These finding will be further evaluated before they are considered for clinical trial.

Oncotarget recently awarded four biomedical researchers grants to attend a cancer science conference in Singapore. The four researchers were committed to discussing the advancements in cancer science.

At the (Frontiers in Cancer Science 2017) scientists from around the world gathered to discuss recent findings in cancer research. Oncotarget was not only proud to provide that opportunity to the researchers. Oncotarget is for the pursuit, maximization and the circulation of science discovery information.

Is coffee healthy and does it lead to a longer life? Two studies in the Annals of Internal Medicine found that a regular intake of coffee reduces the risk of various health diseases.

One study of approximately 185,000 Americans found that those who drank 2-3 cups of regular or decaf coffee a day had a lower risk of death caused by heart disease, kidney disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes. The study monitored participants over the course of 16 years and found that regular coffee drinkers had an 18% decreased chance of death. Read the reviews at dietspotlight.com.

A European study which surveyed 520,000 in 10 different countries also found that coffee drinkers had a lower risk of death. While there is a definite link between coffee and mortality, it is uncertain if non-coffee drinkers had pre-existing health problems that kept them away from coffee.

There is one company trying to take the guesswork out of coffee’s health benefits. Organo is a global network marketing company whose mission is to help individuals find balance and wellbeing. Shop now at Shopog.com.

Organo created a line of products, Organo Gold, which mixes Ganoderma powder with coffee or tea. Ganoderma is a mushroom that has a magical appearance. It is grown and used in Asia. Its primary use is in supplements or skincare. However, the Ganoderma can be dated back to the Ming Dynasty where a doctor was recorded promoting the consumption of Ganoderma.

Recognizing the increased health benefits that Ganoderma offers, Organo Gold partnered with the most prominent certified-organic Ganoderma plantation. Organo Gold offers various coffee and tea options that are available on their website or on Amazon where Organo Gold products have stellar reviews.
